His tall figure disappeared in the dark corridor. The sound of his footsteps echoed, making Nicole very angry and sad. Suddenly, her legs became weak, and she slowly collapsed to the ground along the wall.

With one hand inserted into her hair, Nicole lowered her head and stared at the dark floor tiles, feeling very annoyed and confused. She was confused what had happened just now and why such a thing had happened. How could Lambert humiliate her like this!

Nicole glared at the office of Lambert, but she still didn't have the courage to fight against him. After enduring for a while, she finally picked up her bag silently, slowly stood up with the help of the wall, and silently escaped from the company.

Perhaps Nicole was just like a weak person in the past few years. Since her mother died, her father abandoned her, and she was hurt by Lambert like that, she did not have the courage to face these people, but quietly escaped. How much hatred had turned into blood in her heart! And she could not resist it.

When Nicole didn't have enough ability to deal with these people, she could only choose to hide with Layton and live a life full of hatred and grievance. So Nicole didn't go back to the A City after graduation. Instead, she went to the C City far away. She wouldn't have come back if it weren't for the fact that she needed to take care of Layton after high school and that Layton had been disliked by her relatives and couldn't stay in other people's house.

Two years before Nicole came back, she didn't dare to contact any of her classmates for fear that others would know her situation and that her enemies would take pleasure in her misfortune. However, after Nicole endured for two years, Samuel finally broke the peace. Nicole met Lambert again at a classmate reunion party, and a new disaster began.

Or maybe this was Nicole's fate. Maybe if Samuel didn't come to him, Lambert would also acquire the E Venture Capital Company and meet Nicole. Perhaps Nicole hadn't met Lambert, and the mistress and the daughter of the mistress would also come to Nicole and shamelessly beg for Nicole and Layton' help. This was destined to happen. Nicole couldn't escape.

'But why couldn't I escape from being humiliated and hurt?'

Nicole thought in a trance, depressed. Nicole went back home and did nothing. She took a shower in a hurry and went to bed without drying her hair. At night, she dreamed of her mother, her happy family when she was a child, and the sudden appearance of the mistress and the daughter of the mistress broke the peace, as well as the hurt of Lambert to her.

Even in her dream, Nicole cried. She recalled that she knelt down in front of the gate of Lambert's house in the heavy rain, and Lambert was likely to be mocking her with Primrose upstairs. She felt that it was a nightmare, an unforgettable and indelible injury.

Finally, Nicole was woken up by a ringing phone.

Nicole escaped from the nightmare. Although in front of her it was as dark as a dream, she finally couldn't see her kneeling at the door of Lambert's house and crying. She felt depressed, but she didn't cry miserably as she had in the dream. She finally escaped from the nightmare.
